Charging station idea. about technic HOT 5 CLOSED

Sounds like a good idea, but it can't be done properly with the current implementation of battery boxes. I intend to rewrite them soon...

I think it shall be done in a slightly different way.
Let battery boxes charge only portable batteries and crystals, regardless the tier. (speed will be adjusted just by EU/tick). So no charging tools in batboxes at all.
Then lets make charging bench, able to accept any power cable and based on its tier adjust load charge.
Extra slots can be made using control logic units in expansion slots.
This way we will have simple way of transporting energy with portables, eliminate discharching tools (using them as batteries) and charging time will be self adjusting, depending on power source.

charge pads. a block that charges all your equipped items at the same time (at different rates based on tier) when the player is standing on it. this will allow "no fuss" recharging of powered armors in the future (you know they're coming!)
